Re: No more Ohio front license plates!
Everyone sign please.
I have been pulled over for a front plate already and it was such a pain in the ***. First the tropper pulled me over for no other reason than to tell me I needed a front plate. Not to mention he was a total *** about it the whole time, askng me to step out of the vehicle amoung other things. He even had me go to the front of the vehicle to confirm that there was no plate even after I admitted to knowing I didnt have one. I was doing 5 under the speed limit with belts on all passengers of the car. What a shame when someone has to be embarrassed infront of their peers and inconvenienced for not having a peice of metal on both sides of their car. I then had to report back to his station over an hour from my home. This was after I asked him if I could just go to the station 10 minutes from my home. Aboslutely unnecessary. Abolish this law please.

I have no clue as to how many need on to abolish it, but the more the better. I wish I knew a way around it. I am thinking about writing my Governor or someone. Any ideas?

Re: No more Ohio front license plates!
i think it's a really really great number
i remember the number 80,000 or 800,000 in regards to something else, as in signatures needed in a state
i've been pulled over for it too (and told about it a few other times)although i've been lucky enough not to have to do anything about it
i'll sign though, it'd be something less to get lectured about

Re: No more Ohio front license plates!
front license plates suck a fat one. I am glad i am in GA now with my OH tags. lol. The best thing to do with them on the camaro is to use the front air damn and put it on that. no biggie and it is legal. Thats what i did when i lived there.
BTW, the Z is for sale. Sad but i need the money. A new Z06 will be forthcoming as the next performance vehicle. Maybe a few years.

Re: No more Ohio front license plates!
SIGNED!!! I just got pulled over for no front plate and tinted windows... they just let me go though after i showed them my military ID 
We need a petition for tinted windows too... how do we start that cuz thats even more rediculous than the front plate law. Cops follow me all the time, i had a trooper follow me to my house the other day. Its 30 degrees outside so its a long ride home with my windows down

Re: No more Ohio front license plates!
Exactly. I was going to do tinted windows this summer, but I figured when winter rolled around I'd be driving around with my windows down half the time. Both should be abolished, especially tint laws, since removing the restriction would save 1000's from skin cancer each year

From the American Skin Association:
The shorter wave length of UVB rays keeps them from penetrating glass. UVA rays do penetrate glass, presenting a threat to people riding in cars. Fortunately, automobile occupants are not completely at the mercy of UVA rays because the plastic interleaf of the front windshield (which keeps it from shattering) absorbs most of the UVA radiation. But the side and rear windows offer no such protection. Children are especially at risk because they sit in the back.
Factory-installed solar tinted glass absorbs less than 10 percent of UV rays, but a variety of both tinted and clear automobile window films purport to protect car occupants from most UVA radiation without altering the light transmission of factory glass. The idea of a transparent protective window film that answers a vital health consideration has compelling appeal.
